下面以電子設備開機和電子設備關機兩個過程為例來說明該節能管理電路100控制系統電源上電、系統電源斷電及在關機狀態下省電的工作原理:The following two processes of electronic device booting and electronic device shutdown are taken as an example to illustrate the working principle of the energy-saving management circuit 100 for controlling system power-on, system power-off, and power-saving in a shutdown state:

首先,用戶通過BIOS設置電源管理晶片U1的工作模式,若需要在關機時降低電子設備的功耗,則將省電模式設置引腳SEL設置為高電平有效;若無需在關機時降低電子設備的功耗,則將省電模式設置引腳SEL設置為低電平有效。First, the user sets the operating mode of the power management chip U1 through the BIOS. If the power consumption of the electronic device needs to be reduced during the shutdown, the power saving mode setting pin SEL is set to be active high; if it is not necessary to lower the electronic device during shutdown The power consumption is set to the active mode setting pin SEL active low.

電子設備開機上電:使用者按下電源開關SW,開關機訊號偵測引腳PWR的電壓被拉低,繼而使電壓控制訊號輸出引腳OFF輸出低電平的電壓控制訊號。其後,場效應管Q導通,電壓調整器A工作並輸出驅動電壓,如此輸入輸出晶片30和南橋40均獲得驅動電壓而工作。經延時一段預定的時間(本實施例中為100ms)後,開關機控制訊號輸出引腳BTN發送開機控制訊號,該開機控制訊號通過輸入輸出晶片30傳送至南橋40,南橋40接收到開機控制訊號後,通過開關機使能端子SLPC向輸入輸出晶片30的開關機識別引腳SLP觸發高電平訊號,進而控制系統上電引腳PSON處於低電平,如此電子設備系統電源上電完成開機。The electronic device is powered on: the user presses the power switch SW, and the voltage of the switch signal detection pin PWR is pulled down, and then the voltage control signal output pin is turned OFF to output a low voltage control signal. Thereafter, the field effect transistor Q is turned on, the voltage regulator A operates and outputs a driving voltage, so that both the input/output wafer 30 and the south bridge 40 operate with the driving voltage. After a predetermined period of time (100 ms in this embodiment), the switch control signal output pin BTN sends a power-on control signal, and the power-on control signal is transmitted to the south bridge 40 through the input/output chip 30, and the south bridge 40 receives the power-on control signal. After that, the switch enable terminal SLPC triggers a high level signal to the on/off switch pin SLP of the input/output chip 30, thereby controlling the system power-on pin PSON to be at a low level, so that the electronic device system power-on is powered on.

電子設備關機斷電:使用者執行關機操作,開關機控制訊號輸出引腳BTN發送關機控制訊號,該關機控制訊號通過輸入輸出晶片30傳送至南橋40,南橋40接收到關機控制訊號後,通過開關機使能端子SLPC向輸入輸出晶片30的開關機識別引腳SLP觸發低電平訊號,進而控制系統上電引腳PSON處於高電平,如此即控制電子設備系統電源斷電完成關機。The electronic device is powered off and the power is turned off: the user performs a shutdown operation, and the switch control signal output pin BTN sends a shutdown control signal, and the shutdown control signal is transmitted to the south bridge 40 through the input/output chip 30, and the south bridge 40 receives the shutdown control signal and passes the switch. The machine enable terminal SLPC triggers a low level signal to the on/off identification pin SLP of the input/output chip 30, thereby controlling the system power-on pin PSON to be at a high level, thus controlling the power-off of the electronic device system to complete the shutdown.

另一方面,南橋40通過開關機使能端子SLPC向電源管理晶片U1的關機識別引腳SLPS觸發低電平訊號,電源管理晶片U1判定該電子設備已關機。此時,若電源管理晶片U1的省電模式設置引腳SEL設置為低電平有效,則電源管理晶片U1處於正常工作模式,此時電壓控制訊號輸出引腳OFF輸出低電平的電壓控制訊號,場效應管Q導通,電壓調整器A工作並輸出驅動電壓以維持對輸入輸出晶片30和南橋40提供驅動電壓。On the other hand, the south bridge 40 triggers a low level signal to the shutdown identification pin SLPS of the power management chip U1 through the switch enable terminal SLPC, and the power management chip U1 determines that the electronic device has been turned off. At this time, if the power-saving mode setting pin SEL of the power management chip U1 is set to the active low level, the power management chip U1 is in the normal working mode, and the voltage control signal output pin OFF outputs the low-level voltage control signal. The field effect transistor Q is turned on, the voltage regulator A operates and outputs a driving voltage to maintain the driving voltage to the input and output wafer 30 and the south bridge 40.

若電源管理晶片U1的省電模式設置引腳SEL為高電平有效,則電源管理晶片U1處於省電模式,此時電壓控制訊號輸出引腳OFF輸出高電平的電壓控制訊號,場效應管Q截止,電壓調整器A不工作以停止對輸入輸出晶片30和南橋40提供驅動電壓。顯然,此時輸入輸出晶片30和南橋40在省電模式下均無功耗,可有效的減小電子裝置在關機狀態下的整機功耗。If the power saving mode setting pin SEL of the power management chip U1 is active high, the power management chip U1 is in the power saving mode, and the voltage control signal output pin OFF outputs a high level voltage control signal, and the field effect transistor When Q is off, the voltage regulator A does not operate to stop supplying the driving voltage to the input/output wafer 30 and the south bridge 40. Obviously, at this time, the input/output chip 30 and the south bridge 40 have no power consumption in the power saving mode, and the power consumption of the whole device of the electronic device in the off state can be effectively reduced.

本發明的節能管理電路100電源管理晶片U1設置省電模式,並在省電模式下輸出高電平的電壓控制訊號以控制電源控制電路停止對輸入輸出晶片30和南橋40供電,以此降低電子裝置在關機狀態下的整機功耗。同時,該節能管理電路100還可實現正常的開關機時序。The power management chip 100 of the present invention provides a power saving mode, and outputs a high level voltage control signal in the power saving mode to control the power control circuit to stop supplying power to the input/output chip 30 and the south bridge 40, thereby reducing the electrons. The power consumption of the whole device in the off state. At the same time, the energy saving management circuit 100 can also implement normal switching sequence.
